Team 2079 was a rookie last year. We had no ties to any other teams, and we had very little knowledge of FIRST. We didn't even know 121 existed. We have very well documented brainstorming and prototyping of designs from the build season.

I think you should check your sources before you post. I'm also curious to know where you saw these pictures, because they aren't of my team or from my team.

P.S. What is American Robot anyway?

There was a nice 8x10 picture of 3-4 of 2079 teammates eating pizza and gathering around a laptop. On that laptop was a youtube video. That video title was American Robot Episode 2. I remember it very well since I invited every member of 121 that had anything to do with American Robot over to the 2079 pit to view the photo. I wanted them to see proof that another team was watching our videos.

I thought it was great that a rookie team watched the project my team spent hundreds of hours on and was able to find inspiration in one of our designs. To sit there and deny that *some 2079ers* (not necessarily you) watched it is not so admirable.

Teams find inspiration from other teams all the time. I am not accusing 2079 or any other team of any wrong doing. I was merely stating what I saw at the Boston Regional last year.
